This Time Will Be Different by Misa Sugiura

4.0

I was pleasantly surprised by this one! It felt honest and authentic as a teen romance - messy but heartfelt with a great combination of independence and identity exploration. Some heavy topics are covered (homophobia, abortion, teen pregnancy, model minority, internment camps) but felt naturally embedded in the story. Overall, a dynamic YA read!
